Cologne have conceded in all their home games this term
Mainz concede 2.14 goals per game on the road this season
Four of the last five meetings between these two have seen both teams score
Back goals with both defences struggling
Neither of these sides are flying high in the Bundesliga this term, with the pair both stuck in the bottom four heading into this weekend’s games. They’ve won a combined three matches after 13 rounds of the season, so it’s hard to pick out a favourite for this encounter.
Mainz have at least found their footing in front of goal, with four of their last five trips seeing both teams score. They head to a Cologne side who have managed one clean sheet all season, conceding across all six of their home matches.
The hosts have at least put together a good scoring record at their own ground and they can trouble a Mainz outfit who have shipped 2.14 goals per away trip this term. With the duo conceding well above a goal per game, look to both teams to score in this contest for the fifth time in six meetings.
